I'm searching for a new office chair. Seen some in Frontgate and Hammacher catalogs that were upper end and came in various sizes. I can't find them now.
PK! Get the Aeron, you will not regret it The mesh is really comfy. The only thing I dont like about the mesh is that it sometimes will snag things like silk sweaters and stuff but thats rare.
I purchased mine from a store called "Relax The Back"
do you have one in your area?
Being in it is amazing! You lie back, swing the keyboard and monitor to you....was much more comfortable to me than the Aeron
here is the link to their site, although i did not see it listed on the site, i would contact a store near you. The one in Los Angeles near me had one on display in their store
Originally posted by PersianKitty I assume they ship in parts and have to be put together. Is that very involved?
That's what your sons are for, PK!
I tried the Aeron and another "ergonomic" chair from Herman Miller (but not the one on the link). They just weren't comfortable to me. I went up to Office Max and spent about a 2 hours plopping myself into every chair they had and the most comfortable one to ME was a $100 (discontinued item on sale) leather high backed executive chair. That was 3 years ago and I still LOVE it!
Aeron is the best imho. I've had mine nearly 2 years and can sit it it all day and not have any problems, no sore ass or achy back. It's fully adjustable for height, tilt etc and the new posture support is very good.
The mesh is actually a lot more comfortable to sit on all day than some foam padded seat for me anyway.

No, it's real leather. It was a discontinued item, the only one in the store, and was just sitting there w/o a price. They couldn't even FIND the price on it and I just said "How about $100?"
Chair choice depends on the ass that will sit on it
the Aeron chair DOES come in 3 sizes. you need to sit in it to determine which is best. Most upscale office stores will have one for you to try. There is a discount supplier out of Los Angeles if you decide to buy one.
The Relax the Back Store has several ergonomic chairs on display, as well as the MICROSPHERE.
The Microsphere is as close to an anti-gravity chair as you can get. If you have hip or lower back pain from sitting, this might work for you. The fact that the monitor and keyboard swing to you, its like lying down while you type.
In any case...its all about the comfort of your personal ass! Go sit on a few of them
get a balance ball! it forces you to keep your back in alignment, reducing fatigue and whining...plus when ppl are pissing you off, you can bounce your annoyance away!!
